Mountain Side Home With Absolutely Stunning Adirondack Mountian Views
Nestled in the High Peaks of the Adirondack Mountains, our secluded mountain home offers a breathtaking view of Whiteface Mountain. There are trails available for hiking, snowshoeing, and cross country skiing nearby for you to enjoy. World class fishing is available on the West Branch of the Au Sable River. A five minute drive will bring you to Whiteface Mountain, home of the largest vertical drop in the East and home to skiing events from the 1980 Winter Olympics in Lake Placid. Our home has everything you need for a quiet or adventurous getaway to the mountains.
The home offers a five bedrooms and is child friendly. It includes a fully equipped kitchen and two decks where you can relax and enjoy the view, peace and seclusion.
** FOR WINTER GUESTS: We HIGHLY recommend an AWD or 4WD drive vehicle to come up the driveway. We have a gravel driveway that becomes snow packed for most of the winter season. We keep it plowed, but the winding uphill slope will be difficult in snowy conditions**

This rental property is beautifully decorated, clean and the views of Whiteface spectacular! Communication with the owner is excellent. Our family of 14 had a wonderful time.
We we there with out ski team to participate in the U14 Super G race at Whiteface. The house was exactly what we needed for our team. We had plenty of room to spread out when needed but also large enough space to all be together to hang out. It was a wonderful weekend. Thank you.
The house and the view were absolutely beautiful. Everything was clean, and the house had everything we needed! It was the perfect place to get everyone together in one spot, which is usually impossible. It was perfect for those of us who like to relax indoors, and for those those of us in the midst of training for a marathon. We would absolutely love to book at this location again in the future!
Thank you for such a great stay! The house was perfect for several groups/families to stay together. Lots of bedrooms, bathrooms, space, and large gathering spaces for everyone to hang out! The views from the deck were gorgeous. The house was stocked with everything we needed. Located in a great spot near many hikes, shops, and things to do! Will definitely book again!
Le chalet était beau en photo, mais en réalité je l’ai trouvé plus spacieux et encore plus beau. Les chambres étaient grandes et confortables . La décoration était très pittoresque, il y a un grand souci des détails. Tout est dans le thème des Adirondacks. Et que dire de la magnifique vue sur les montagnes !! J’ai vraiment adoré ce chalet, il est très bien situé pour faire de la randonnée tel que Whiteface et Jay Mountain. Il y avait tout ce qu’on avait besoin pour cuisiner je le recommanderais N’importe quand
We spent 4 nights here for a family get together! We had several levels of hikers take to the trails. We enjoyed visiting Lake Placid and Whiteface. The house was comfortable for 15 of us. We cooked and ate all of our meals at this beautifully equipped and well layed out house!
Comfortable house with attached 2-car garage for moving in/out in inclement weather. Location near Whiteface and Lake Placid plus easy access to I-87. Good restaurants and groceries are close by. Very quiet location. Screened in porch for dining.
The house is fantastic and lives up to the pictures. Very spacious and great views of the mountains. We have stayed here several times and will continue to do so.
Our extended family spent one week at the home in late June. The house was very comfortable with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for our size group (6 people). While we were there primarily to visit Lake Placid and the surrounding area we also made good use of the Ping Pong table, Foosball table and indoor shuffleboard in the evenings and on rainy days. The game room was ideal for keeping the 9 year old grandson engaged. The home has a wonderful full length porch that presents a gorgeous view of nearby Whiteface Mountain. Overall it was one of the nicer summer vacation homes we have ever rented.
My family and friends had a great stay at this property. Perfect ski house for a family get together. Property was clean and easy to get in and out of. Rooms were spacious. and instructions and rules were easy to understand and clearly posted. Kitchen was well stocked. I had very little communication with owner, because there was no need. But we truly appreciated the space and location and any future trips to Whiteface, we'll be looking to stay at the same home! Thank you for a wonderful stay.
This mountain house is a true gem – a harmonious combination of warmth and aesthetics. The inviting decor, coupled with breathtaking mountain vistas, makes for an enchanting stay. It's a haven where coziness meets natural beauty, ensuring a memorable and relaxing experience.
This house was absolutely perfect for our growing family! Plenty of space, clean, central location! The response time for any issues was immediate! We have been coming to the Lake placid area for almost 30 years, we will definitely be coming back to this house!
House had more than enough beds and rooms for our family of ten. 15 minutes to Lake Placid. Close to stores/restaurants. Clean and quiet home on private lot. We really enjoyed our stay.
View of Whiteface and surrounding hills while gas fireplace warms the room is magic. Very quiet location, easy to get to Wilmington and Lake Placid. Lots of rooms and gameroom downstairs, 4 bathrooms (3 with showers), just a beautiful spot to stay.
This is a very well laid out, well stocked house. The view is beautiful and even though it rained the house was so comfortable and had lots to do (puzzles, games, shuffleboard, fuseball, ping-pong). It was an easy drive to Lake Placid. We had 4 adult couples and it was very comfortable for all. Highly recommend!
This is our second visit to this wonderful property, it's perfect for those looking for peace and quiet in the beautiful Adirondack region. The house is clean, large and well appointed with awesome views to the Whiteface Mountain ski slopes 10 minutes away. We had a couple questions during our stay and the owners are responsive, helpful and friendly. This house is perfect home base in all 4 seasons, we hope to be back again soon.

About the host
Hosted by Catherine Simpson
Hi Everyone, I'm Catherine. I've been coming up to the Adirondack since before I can remember. I call it my outdoor playground. My husband and I finally bought a house up here to retire to, but until then I'm going to rent it out to you fine folks. I hope you enjoy the home as much as me and my family does.
Why they chose this property
Please look at the photos from the living room sofa. And I will tell you now, it is even more stunning in person. This house also has a great location for all year round activities. We are about 20 minutes from Lake Placid and 20 minutes or less to most high peak trail heads. Or if you are a skier, like I am, you are also about 5 minutes to Whiteface.
I am also VRBO renter and I was always frustrated when owners counted a pull out couch or couch as a bed! You will not find that here we have 9 beds in total and five rooms to accommodate different couples and a bunk room to throw all the kids into.
We also have ping pong, fuzzball, corn hole (bean bag toss), and many board games.
